Musical Performances

Celebrated faculty members Mikael Eliasen, Ida Kavafian, Hal Robinson and Michael Rusinek, have curated a unique progression of musical vignettes featuring them with their current and past students and culminating with a group performance unlike anything you’ve experienced at Curtis.

Curtis alumni trio Time for Three, hailed by Simon Rattle as “the future of music,” will take the stage in a rousing set with classical guitar phenom Jason Vieaux, rising star Sarah Shafer (Opera ’14), and Carmen sensation Rinat Shaham (Opera ’88)—a dynamic combination of musicians giving a once-in-a-lifetime performance.
